According to my map, old US 231 runs pretty straight for 3 or 4 miles under the Cropwell Creek area with a number of intersecting submerged roads, building foundations, creek channels and other reachable structure along the way. I intended to troll spoonplugs over the roadbed last year, but never got around to it. Frankly, trolling is not my preferred way to fish, even though trolling by the Spoonplugging system is the best way I know to catch summer bass and other gamefish. My plan is to troll the roadbed with progressively deeper spoonplugs until I pinpoint a few good spots for long term casting. I'd rather catch 1 bass casting than 5 trolling, which is about what the trolling/casting ratio usually is. If it were just about fish numbers and weight, I'd seldom do anything but troll spoonplugs.
